SUMMARY:Diamond Wedding Star by Quiltworx - Live Zoom Series
DESCRIPTION:This is a quilt I’ve long wanted to make!  Now is the time! \nThe Diamond Wedding Star finishes at 96″ x 99″.  You can do the piecing only — which allows for exquisite quilting to highlight your piecing.  Or you can add applique to add another layer of beauty to your quilt.  Go holiday (I’ll be doing my applique in reds for a Poinsettia & Holly look) or go beautiful spring\, summer or fall colors!  Any color combination you choose this quilt will be a stunner! \nThe quilt is build to use one of Judy’s 2 1/2″ strip sets (I have many colorways available) or you can create your own!  The intro class will explain fully how to color and coordinate your fabric purchases to create the quilt of your dreams.  The pattern is also available in Quiltster.  (Never used Quiltster before?  Purchase my one demand Quiltster class and you’ll be up to speed in no time at all.) \nClasses meet LIVE on Saturday morning for a discussion and explanation of your upcoming homework.  Separate instructional sewing videos will detail the actual techniques required to sew each component and through the assembly process. \nChoose to add applique to your quilt — or just do the piecing!  It’s up to you.  Instruction will be provided for both applique options:  traditional machine applique using Judy’s applique products OR choose machine digitized embroidery applique using the Fabric Confetti Software.  The differences and options will be discussed in the intro class session. \nPatterns / Applique if purchases will be shipped early-mid November.  Patterns & applique are discounted with purchase through me! \nLive class sessions will be recorded — so you’ll never miss a moment. \nAll classes are on Saturdays and start at 10:00 AM – and will run 60-90 minutes (as long as needed).  RESERVE YOUR SPOT BEFORE THANKSGIVING AND SAVE $25.00  USE COUPON CODE   TURKEY.\n20-Dec             Introduction to Pattern\, Fabric Requirements\, Applique Options \n10-Jan              Cutting & Organizing Fabrics \n17-Jan              Preparing Appliqué \n31-Jan              Strip Piecing the Arcs \n14-Feb              Curved Piecing (AR / BL)          \n28-Feb              Flame Star — Cutting / Sewing \n14-Mar              Assembly Prep — Cutting LARGE T-Templates \n28-Mar              Assembly — Creating Wedge Groups \nRecorded          Machine Embroidery How-To (Fabric Confetti Software) \n11-Apr              Assembly — Joining Wedges to Rows \n25-Apr              Finishing Your Quilt Top \n  \nMy commitment to you is from start-to-finish!  Even after the series is completed — as long as you are working — I’ll be there if you have any questions!

SUMMARY:Shipshewana Spring 2025 - Quiltworx Technique of the Month Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Sorry we are at capacity for Spring 2025! \nWe’re now taking reservations for our Autumn  Shipshewana Retreat –\n October 7 – 12\, 2025!   See the new listing.\nDon’t miss your opportunity to visit Shipshewana in Late Spring 2025 to work on  your Quiltworx Technique of the Month Quilt!  Jungle Magnolia!! You know you’ll want to make it!  Or bring any pattern you wish to sew! \nWe are adding an extra day this year — so we’ll be retreating from Tuesday\, June 3 (start sewing at 10:00 AM) and we will sew until Sunday afternoon (4:00 PM).  THAT IS 6 FULL DAYS OF SEWING!!!   That week is also the week of the nearby Elkhart Quilt Show — so you can sneak away one day to take in the show if you wish!  It’s about a 20 minute drive.  Not to mention a visit to Yoder Department Store\, The Cotton Corner\, Lolly’s\,  Essenhaus Quilt Shop\, Caroline’s\, Zincks and more!  And don’t forget your stop at JoJo’s Pretzels or Ben’s Pretzels!  Yummy is the word of the day! \nAs always — I’ll start the instruction on Zoom in February — and you can join me then and get started or wait until the retreat to get going.  The full Zoom Series is included with your retreat registration!  A $300+ value! \nThe Zoom series is available independently as well.  You can choose RETREAT ONLY or ZOOM ONLY or you can purchase your pattern with your registration (I discount them with registration!) for either the retreat or the Zoom Series.  Since the pattern was released — Certified Shops have been offering KITS — which can include fabric only or fabric with pattern – make sure you don’t purchase 2 patterns!   I can also help you custom design your own colorway using Quiltster if you want your own unique quilt.  Or join me and learn how to use Quiltster to design your own! \nDeposit will be refundable through January 31st\, 2025 less a 4% processing (mostly what is withheld by the payment processor.)   Reserve your hotel rooms independently at The Farmstead Inn or plan to stay at the nearby campground or check out some of the nearby VRBO / B&B options.  There are other hotels a little less pricey you may want to check out.  You do NOT need to stay at the hotel to participate in the Retreat. \nI hope you’ll consider joining me.  With the Zoom support added — this is a GREAT value — 6 days of sewing and the full Zoom Series (and my support from start to finish regardless of your timeline). \n\n \n

SUMMARY:Twinkle Star - A Great Introduction to Paper Piecing and Quiltworx Patterns
DESCRIPTION:Twinkle Star is a great introductory pattern for learning the Judy Niemeyer approach to paper pieced patterns\, essential paper piecing tools and tips\,  cutting and preparing foundation papers\, fundamental paper piecing processes\, curved piecing\, floating points. and lone star units.  The pattern includes three distinct groups that combine to create a stunning 38″ x 38″ quilt that goes together very quickly.   I’ve taught this pattern in several in-person guild retreats\, to rave reviews\,  because there is so much great learning in a manageable and affordable package!  If you’re looking for an “on-ramp” to the world of Judy Niemeyer and Quiltworx\, it doesn’t get better than this!  No previous paper piecing or quilting experience is necessary! If you can use a rotary cutter & a ruler and sew a straight line\, you have the skills to tackle this course! \nA Versatile Design\nLike many of our favorite quilts\, your choice of color way can create a wide variety of looks.  Experienced quilters may want to use this project to practice their design and color-way skills!    This small sampling of Twinkle Star designs I snagged from the Quiltworx Facebook page gives you just a little taste  of  the potential of this pattern. \n  \n  \nFor those who want to experiment\, Twinkle Star is Quiltster compatible\, meaning that you can plan your Twinkle Star with your colors and fabrics using the online Quiltster digital quilt planner.  (I’m offering a great online tutorial on how-to-use Quiltster in January – click for more information!) \nOnline Classes  – In your sewing room –  On your schedule. \nI offer my classes on Zoom\,  an online platform that will allow you to see and hear my lessons live on a smartphone\, tablet\, or laptop or desktop computer.(Or if you have a conflict — catch the recorded class at your convenience.)   Once you have registered for your class\, (from the link below)  you just need your device and access to the Internet\,  you don’t need to purchase any software or pay for any other services to participate in our Zoom class.  By the way\, you don’t have to be a geek to use it. I will send you a web link for each class and you click the link at the scheduled time to participate in the class. That’s it!  If you’re worried about the technical aspects\, I’ll even schedule a time where we can chat and I’ll help you get logged on to Zoom on your device. \n \n  \nMany of our past participants prefer Zoom classes because you don’t have to pack up your machine\, and lug your material and tools to a shop or meeting room for classes.  It all happens in the comfort of your own sewing space!   I use multiple cameras so you have a front row view whether I’m explaining an illustration in the pattern booklet or showing you how to feed a finicky piece through the sewing machine.  If you have questions during the class\, it’s live and interactive – ask questions\, ask for a closer look or show us your progress — all live!   And here’s the bonus… I record the classes and make them available for several months.  If you have to miss a live class\, you can review the recording at your leisure.  If you’re having problems with a particular technique\, just retrun to that part of the video and watch that section again!   Plus I include additional technique specific videos to help you master those techniques.   Because things happen\, and life gets in the way of sewing (I hate that!)\, I’ve had a number of quilters complete my classes by only watching the recordings and an occasional phone call or question over text or chat.  So don’t let the class schedule limit your participation.   You will be provided access to all materials\, including the class recordings for months after the class ends.   My exclusive BobKat Quilts guarantee is that I’m with you until you finish your project.   If you have a question\, I’m available to you by chat\, email or call  (even a 1-on-1 Zoom session) until you finish your quilt (even if the formal classes ended weeks ago)! \nWant to know what others think of our classes?  Go to the home page of this site and scroll down the page for a slide show of nearly 100 testimonials from other quilters. \nClass Schedule\nThis project class is bargain priced so you can give paper piecing a try.  If you are already a paper piecer — you are still welcome to join us! \nWednesday\, February 16 – 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM (Central Time) \nWednesday\, February 23 – 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM \nWednesday\, March  2 – 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM \nWednesday\, March 9 – 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM \nClass fee includes pattern\, all instruction (videos will remain available for months after the live class concludes) which includes both live class sessions and additional technique videos.  Plus my BobKat Guarantee — which means I’m here for your until your quilt top is complete!!  Whenever that is! \nWhat you get: \n\n12 hours of instruction (plus several hours of additional support videos!)\nYour Pattern (retail value $27)\nSupport and assistance from start to your last stitch!

SUMMARY:Poinsettia Table Topper - Zoom Class
DESCRIPTION:Small Quilt –  Big Learning\nThis beautiful small quilt is perfect for your tables\, your walls and make extraordinary gifts!  They are quilt patterns that with proper instruction every quilt-maker can make! \nIn a few short classes you will learn how to navigate Quiltworx quilt patterns\, how to choose fabrics for Quiltworx quilts and the fundamentals of paper piecing as well as curved piecing the Quiltworx way! These skills will lay a great foundation for future quilt projects. You’ll be amazed at how quickly these beautiful quilts go from start to finish!   A Quiltworx pattern — this foundation paper pieced table topper finishes at 30″ — either round or square!!  It’s quick to make\, quick to quilt and quick to bind.  That makes it a perfect quilt to gift to family and friends (or keep for yourself!!).  Make them in colors to match your decor — or seasonal — spring\, summer\, fall\, winter or holiday!  They are so pretty you’ll want one for every season! \nThe Best Seat in the Room…\n  \nBecause classes are on the ZOOM platform – there is no packing up. No lugging your machine in the rain\, cold or snow.   No travel – no hotel bills!  You will be in your own bed every night. No worrying about social distancing or health risks.  You will work from your own sewing room and have all your tools set up the way you like available to you.  You can even attend in your jammies!  Unlike typical online classes where you can only watch – with ZOOM you watch\, listen\, ask questions AND get answers right then and there.  Like the online classes\, sessions are recorded so you can revisit them as needed.  Unlike a typical classroom where students huddle around the instructor during demonstrations where you wrangle to get a good view – EVERYONE has the same perfect view.  I utilize multiple camera angles as well as PowerPoint and graphics to make sure you have the perfect look at exactly what you need to see to understand what it is you need to do. From lectures to cutting to pressing to sewing – you’ll have the perfect view every time.   And  \nKathy is always happy to answer emails\, text message or even set up a one-on-one video chat to make sure you will have no reason not to finish your quilt! \nCourse Schedule\nClass will meet on Friday mornings  in October – beginning with an Introduction to Zoom – so if you are a Zoom novice – we’ll make sure you understand how it all works before the actual quilting class begins.  Then there will be an Introduction to Quiltworx patterns – so if this is your first “Judy quilt”  or even if an experienced paper piecer\,  we’ll ensure that you will be able to hit the ground running.  You’ll know the terminology\, you will understand the tools\, you will be able to look at the pattern and papers and know how to read them. You will understand exactly what you need to do to be 100% prepared for the first official sewing instruction class.  We will also review the fabrics needed — to make sure you can create the exact quilt y \nou are seeing in your mind. \n Then we will have two sewing sessions where I will introduce and demonstrate the techniques you will need to keep sewing once class is concluded.  You will have time in class to get started to make sure you understand what you need to do – but homework between Zoom sessions will allow you to make great progress through the class and by the second class session you will be assembling your  Poinsettia quilt – and could possibly have the top complete!! \nWant to participate but you work during the day?  Classes are recorded so you can watch them at your convenience – day or night.  And I’m always available to answer questions outside of the actual class.  An email\, text or a quick video chat will get your questions answered!  \n  \nClass Dates are as follows \nClass will include the following sessions: \nFriday\, October 2 – 9:30 – 10:00 AM CDT – A Zoom Setup Session — to make sure your technology is set and ready to go.  All you need is your smart phone\, tablet or computer! \nFriday\, October 2 – 10:00 – Noon  AM CDT – Quiltworx 101 — an introduction to Quiltworx patterns and a review of your pattern and fabric requirements. \nFriday\, October 16 – 9:30 AM – Noon – Session #1 – Piecing the flowers and Leaves \nFriday\,  October 30 – Session #2 – Joining your parts together to finish your quilt! \nIt really is a great project and perfect for quiltmakers of all skill levels!! \nGreat Value!\nYour course fee includes: \n\nThe full Quiltworx  Poinsettia quilt pattern\nSupport for Zoom and online classes\nAt least 5 hours of instruction and demonstrations\nOngoing support from a Quiltworx Certified Instructor until your project is completed\n\nCourse fee: $79  \nClass sizes are limited so don’t wait!  Reserve your spot today!   I look forward to Zooming with you soon!  \nPurchase your ticket below \nI hope you’ll plan to join me!  When you discover how easy this beautiful quiltis to make – and how quickly it goes together… you’ll want to make several for gifts!  And they are easy to quilt on your domestic machine – a simple stitch in the ditch to something more ornate – so you’ll be able to finish them without needing the services of a long arm quilter!  They can decorate your table this Holiday Season! \n
